Story
Blue is an Aussie mix, he is very social and loves to play, Blue needs an active owner and a yard, with a fence, not suited for apartment Blue is very energetic, he likes other dogs but plays rough. He would need to be paired with a patient dog who can put up with his immature behavior, he doesn&#39t always read cues to stop playing. His potty training has progressed significantly but he does still have accidents in the kennel occasionally. His personality is super loving and sweet, but he is mischievous and likes to be the life of the party and is still very much a puppy. Blue push boundaries and see how much he can get away with so he will need a strong leader. The adoption fee for all of our dogs is $300.00 and that includes their vaccinations, spay or neuter, rabies and microchip. Our dogs are also heartworm negative (or we will cover their treatment). To start the process please visit our website and fill out the adoption application (www.dfwrescueme.org) and from there the foster family can answer any questions and arrange a time to meetNovember 26, 2025, 11:46 am

Molly is extremely lovable! She is also extremely energetic. Needs a big back yard or an owner who is very active. She is very intelligent and learns quickly. She loves to play and fetch the ball. The only reason I am removing her is because of health issues.

Story
Where did you acquire your pet? We adopted Emma from a breeder called Valentina Puppies. She has been with us since she was a young puppy and has been raised in a home environment. How old is your pet? Emma is 8 months old. What are you looking for in a new home? We are looking for a home that truly understands and enjoys high-energy, intelligent working breeds. Emma would thrive with: • An active individual or family • Someone experienced with Australian Shepherds or similar breeds • A home with older children (she struggles to play gently with our 5-year-old) • Time for daily exercise, training, and mental stimulation She currently chases our cats. We believe she could learn to coexist with cats with consistent training and boundaries, but a cat-free home or a confident, dog-savvy cat household would be ideal. This decision was not made lightly. Emma is a wonderful dog, but we’ve realized we cannot provide the level of physical and mental engagement she needs to truly thrive.

Story
Blue is our sweet anniversary baby, born on our 20th anniversary (Feb 2021). We love him so incredibly much and have enjoyed having him in our lives. Unfortunately, my health has declined to the point where I am no longer able to provide him with the constant activity that he needs as an Aussie. The ideal home will have plenty of land for him to run and play and be very active, because he absolutely will not do well in a small confined space like a small backyard. He is cuddly, loving, and loves being snuggled. We are incredibly sad to see him go, but do not want him to continue to suffer being cooped up in a small home.
